THE FOSSIL STORE™ fallen star series brings you our latest NWA [H5] meteorite weighing a weighty 4.2 KG! Now transformed with elegant innovated-designed AES stands for spaces out there.

This rare extraterrestrial star forms our ever-evolving solar system dating 4,500,000,000 [BILLION] years, with less than 0.01% of 50,000+ terrestrial impacts occurring each year on the planets we know of, some of which burn upon entering earth's upper atmosphere, many of which fall into our oceans.

Introducing a [NWA] H5 chondrite meteorite at 4.2 KG, now cradled on the AES | bronze stand series. Once part of a substantial meteor body orbiting asteroids or asteroid belts in our solar system. In rare events, these stars fall to planetary objects, in this case, earth - entering our stratosphere and impacting the Western Saharan Desert. Exhibiting shallow regmaglypts on the surface, [indentations] created by ablation while falling through the atmosphere, and on occasion consist of fractures caused by terrestrial impact.

Chondrite meteorites contain chondrules, microscopic spheres which are by repute the building blocks of our planetary systems. Science identifies chondrites by the approximated 20% of iron and nickel found within and these mineralised spherical chondrule compounds are often discovered within iron chondrites which offers a greater understanding of the history of our planetary system, enabling science the opportunity to further study a small percentage of extraterrestrial matter that forms parts of our solar system which has evolved over 4,500,000,000 years, as we know it today.
